FLOW DIVIDER KIT (Optional)

General Description

The Flow Divider Kit consists of those parts required to power the backhoe from tractors or skid steer loaders that have hydraulic flow rates above 12 gal- lons per minute (gpm). It includes the flow divider valve, hydraulic hoses to connect the valve to the backhoe, and adapter fittings. This kit does not include the hoses required to connect the flow divider valve to the tractor or skid steer loader. These hoses may be obtained from your local deal- ership and must have 7/8” - 14 JIC (37°flare) female threads to connect to the flow divider valve.

NOTE - Tighten all hardware to the torque require- ments specified in the torque chart.

Assembly

IMPORTANT - If hoses are hooked-up incorrectly, serious damage to the backhoe valve will result. DO NOT use thread sealant on union ends of adapters. DO NOT over-tighten fittings - they can split or expand causing hydraulic fluid leakage.
